PHMSA Holds Plastic Pipe Rule Webinar

By Erin Kurilla posted 04-25-2019 11:05 AM

  
On April 24, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) held a public webinar on the Plastic Pipe Rule that was published on November 20, 2018. The slides are available to view on APGA’s Open Forum, but unfortunately, the webinar was not recorded. PHMSA provided a detailed summary of all the elements of the rule and attempted to address several reoccurring questions from industry. PHMSA provided a disclaimer that none of their answers provided during the webinar can be deemed as official PHMSA positions and encouraged operators to work with their state regulators if they have questions about how to comply with elements within the rule.

If you have follow-up or additional questions you would like to ask PHMSA, please send any questions to Erin Kurilla by May 7, 2019. We are gathering these questions and sharing them with PHMSA. In the event that a second, follow-up webinar is deemed necessary, it will be scheduled during the week of May 13th.
